Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X370S10CP
The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X370S10CP is a miniature linear guide on a 12 mm stainless-steel rail with recirculating-ball carriage. It is the small end of the range, for light-duty precision positioning in a tight envelope — compact stages, small pick-and-place heads and inspection fixtures.

About the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X370S10CP
AirTAC's LRM12L1X370S10CP is a complete set: a 12 mm wide stainless-steel rail cut to 370 mm, carrying one long recirculating-ball carriage. This is the top-mount version - fixing holes sit on the rail's upper face, the most straightforward way to bolt a guide onto a machined base. Accuracy grade P (precision) and preload C (medium) both appear in the code, so the set is aimed at compact machines where play must be eliminated and straightness matters.
A long carriage spreads the ball contact over a greater length, which steadies an overhung tool or camera better than a standard block would. The medium preload trades a little running drag for rigidity, so plan on ground or finish-milled mounting surfaces to get the full benefit of the P grade. The double-lip seal scrapes grease and dust, an outer cover keeps larger debris off the seal strip, and the balls are manufactured to ISO 3290 G10 - a ball grade only. Keep the ambient at 80 C or below, with transients no higher than 100 C. Because AirTAC publishes no load or moment table for LRM, request the confirmed figures for this SKU through the RFQ.

Where the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X370S10CP Is Used
Optical metrology fixture
A benchtop lens-measurement slide needs straightness more than muscle; precision grade P and a long carriage keep an overhung camera steady along a 370 mm sweep of the 12 mm rail.
Laser alignment slide
Aligning a small laser diode module to a target demands play-free motion; preload C eliminates lash, and the top-mount rail bolts straight onto a milled optical baseplate.
Prototype electronics placement
On a low-volume SMT prototyping bench, a manually positioned placement head benefits from the low profile of a 12 mm guide and the consistent, damped feel of the medium preload.
Is the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X370S10CP the Right Guide?
When the load is heavy or hangs off a lever arm, LSH is the better series: its catalogue lists dynamic, static and moment ratings per carriage, giving you numbers to design with, which LRM withholds. For very short travel where crossed-roller stiffness matters more than envelope, compare LGC. Checklist for this SKU: complete set form, 12 mm rail width, long (L) carriage, one block on a 370 mm rail, preload C, precision (P) accuracy, top-mount rail. Note that stocked rail length, not size, drives most of the price spread - two rail widths cover a stock range of roughly $66 to $831. Confirm the load rating for this exact model with us before committing.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Complete set, carriage only, or rail only?
- ✓ Load and moment confirmed with us
- ✓ Travel length and mounting space
- ✓ Accuracy grade and preload
- ✓ Mounting surface ground or finish-milled
- ✓ Pairing code, if replacing a part
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Mounting surface must be ground or finish-milled.
- check Torque the rail screws per the recommended figures, in sequence.
- check Keep the mounting corner radius inside the stated R maximum.
- check Do not angle the carriage onto the rail; balls can drop out.
- check Drive the supplied bolt caps into the mounting holes.
- check Re-grease every 100 km of travel or every 3–6 months.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X370S10CP FAQ
This set is 12 mm rail width, 370 mm rail length, one long carriage, preload C (medium), accuracy P (precision), top-mount fixing. Fasten with M2 screws torqued to 58.8 N.cm in steel, 39.2 N.cm in cast iron or 29.4 N.cm in aluminium; M3 screws take 196, 127 and 98 N.cm in the same order. Ambient must stay at or below 80 C, with peaks no higher than 100 C. Carriages arrive greased with Kyodo Yushi PS No. 2; top up every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. Load and moment ratings are not published for LRM - we confirm the figure for this exact model when you submit the RFQ.
Choose LRM when the envelope is tiny and the duty light, as here: a 12 mm rail with a long carriage suits compact positioning heads. Step up to LSH when the load becomes substantial or cantilevered, because LSH publishes dynamic, static and moment ratings per carriage that you can calculate against - LRM publishes none, so the figure is confirmed per model. If travel is short and crossed-roller rigidity is the goal, look at LGC instead. Send us the stroke, load description and duty cycle and we will size it with you.
